The Pokémon GO Battle League's Dual Destiny Season introduces exciting new specialized cups, demanding strategic team building. The Fantasy Cup, running from December 3rd to 17th, presents a unique challenge. Pokémon must be 1500 CP or less and belong to one of three types: Dragon, Steel, or Fairy.
Fantasy Cup Team Strategies
This cup presents both challenges and opportunities. Dragon types are weak to themselves and Fairy types, while Steel is the only type without inherent weaknesses to the others. This necessitates careful team composition.
Building a Winning Team
The limited type pool simplifies prediction, with many players likely favoring Steel types. However, effective teams will incorporate dual-typed Pokémon to cover weaknesses. Ground-type moves are particularly useful against Steel, while dual Poison types counter Fairy.
Suggested Team Combinations
Consider these team combinations, balancing offensive power and defensive resilience:
Pokémon | Type |
---|---|
![]() | Water/Fairy |
![]() | Ground/Steel |
![]() | Poison/Steel |
This team offers broad type coverage. Azumarill is a strong lead, while Alolan Dugtrio and Galarian Weezing provide crucial type matchups. Strategic switching is key.
Pokémon | Type |
---|---|
![]() | Ground/Steel |
![]() | Ice/Steel |
![]() | Fire/Steel |
A Steel-focused team with diverse coverage. Excadrill's popularity makes it a viable option. Heatran's Fire typing provides additional offensive capabilities, but be wary of Water-types.
Pokémon | Type |
---|---|
![]() | Steel |
![]() | Fairy/Normal |
![]() | Fire/Dragon |
This team utilizes Melmetal's offensive strength, Wigglytuff's defensive utility, and Turtonator's Dragon-type coverage.
These are just a few examples. Experiment to find the best strategy and maximize your rewards in the Pokémon GO Fantasy Cup. Pokémon GO is available on mobile devices.
